I have no problem with sub-par musicianship. I like KISS for instance, and they are no virtuoso. I also prefer guys like Bernie Marsden to Steve Vai. My biggest problem with the Stones is that I do not like the songs at all. And they are badly played. I don't care about the fact they were the anti-Beatles. If I like KISS, it is because I like most of their songs. And then, I can appreciate what they stand for. And yes TRS have been a smashing success indeed. As have 50 cents, Beyonce, Eminem and Jay Z.
